It's a Wonderful Life

[BC_Wader]

Brings out the best in humanity. Watching it for the umteenth time. Makes me feel good watching it. We should all strive to be like George Bailey. This is at the top of my favorite movies ever and I never tire of watching it. If this doesn't touch your soul then you don't have one.

LOL. Just finished watching it. Usually watch it a couple times around Christmas. It’s a feel good flick. Need more of them these days.

My wife didn't like it the first time we watched it; made me somewhat concerned about a very important life choice I made.. lol. She has since come around and our family watches it yearly.

I would have liked it more, had it ended like this.

I wish I had never been born.

One of my all time favorite movies!

Surprisingly the movie (1943) wasn't received all that well and did poorly at the box office. 31 years later in 1974 the copyright lapsed and it became open to the public. The rest is history. Great flick. .

It's my 14 year old daughter's favorite Christmas Movie. She loves Christmas time and she and I always watch It's a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th St and White Christmas. Of course she also loves The Andy Griffith show. 🤣

George was providing preferential loans to immigrants and the poor. Potter was the real hero!

Watch it annually, it is one of those things that helps.me.slow down a bit during the holidays and refocus.

One of my all time favorites.

I've always said the sweetest, most innocent moment in film history is George saying he'll lasso the moon and give it to Mary. You say that now and it comes off as incredibly cheesy and odd but it just works in that film.

Jimmy Stewart had to be persuaded to take the role. He was still dealing with the psychological effects of the war, having been a bomber pilot in Europe. He certainly had a haunted look in some scenes.
